RIVAH’s mission is to rebuild a strong foundation for our young people and future generations through advocacy, community education, public policy, technical assistance and training, resource sharing and research. RIVAH will provide one of the most extensive domestic violence prevention programs in Guyana, which will be based in schools throughout the Regions.
We are on a mission to end relationship abuse among young people. We will provide resources for adults and children experiencing domestic violence throughout the year in Guyana, as well as the work closely with local organizations that serve them. We will offer support and services for today and education, advocacy and leadership tomorrow in an effort to shape a violence-free future for families in our community, regions and country as a whole.

Our policy will prohibit discrimination in all our programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, and where applicable, sex, marital status, familial status, parental status, religion, sexual orientation, genetic information, political beliefs, reprisal, or because all or a part of an individual’s income and/or status.

Our inclusive initiative will distinguish the Center as a one of the leaders in supporting underprivileged populations of violence victims and those living in rural areas
